The Manager Track

Misconceptions About Leadership Coaching


Listen Later

Ep. 110 - In this week’s episode of The Manager Track podcast, we’re going to talk about common misconceptions about leadership coaching and the difference between coaching and training in leadership development.


The three common misconceptions we will discuss are:

  1. Coaching is for people who need something fixed
  2. Coaches should have experience in your field or your profession
  3. Coaching is for executives
  4. My goal is to help you identify when you should hire a coach, and what you want to be looking out for when you think about coaching versus engaging in skill training to grow as a leader!
